Flexibility
In hotels with meeting facilities where there is an occasional need for telephone
service in the meeting rooms, the Terminal Translation Initialization (TTI) feature
is available. With TTI, ports are translated as “administered, but inactive.” When
the port needs to be activated, a hotel communications staff member plugs a
telephone into the desired jack. He or she enters a feature access code, a security
password, and an extension number. The telephone now is available for that room.
When the telephone is to be removed, the removal code is entered, followed by
the password and the extension number. This arrangement requires that the hotel
have a port from the switch wired to every possible jack in the meeting rooms,
which can have up-front costs but which will provide a good level of customer
service. One way to limit the cost is to provide a limited number of ports to the
meeting room area. A patch panel would allow hotel staff to wire extensions to
specific jacks on a flexible basis. You can still serve several jacks with a limited
number of ports.
